The Murloc Tribe

"As expected!"

They saw a small stream flowing at the end of the forest. The clear spring water and the incessant sound of flowing water were exactly what Jiang Chen and the others had heard earlier.

However, there was a small camp standing at the side of this stream.

"A... a monster!"

Zhang Fei's pupils constricted.

Following his gaze, he saw the monster standing at the outermost side of the camp. It was clad in scales and had a tail behind it. It was holding a pitchfork in its hand as it leaned against the bonfire in the camp, quietly warming itself.

Jiang Chen had vaguely heard the occasional hissing sound coming from the monster's mouth!

"Don't panic!"

"Let's observe here first and see just how many monsters there are in this camp!"

Jiang Chen held his breath and tried his best to keep his voice low as he stared intently at the humanoid monsters in the camp.

His footsteps were extremely light as he slowly moved.

His eyes were slightly solemn.

Jiang Chen had bought ten copies of the Eye of truth in one go. He'd also discovered that the eye of truth could see some information about the outside world.

"Power: a camp of grey-scaled Murlocs. Description: a gathering place established by a different race. It is extremely close to the territory."

The introduction of the eye of truth was extremely short. It was almost impossible to capture the specific information of the other party's strength.

However, Jiang Chen pursed his lips tightly at this moment. His dark eyes were filled with solemnity.

"The distance between this place and the territory is only about forty kilometers. As long as these grey-scaled Murlocs explore the south, it won't be long before they discover the territory!"

Thinking back to the goblins that Parker had met earlier and the foreign races that humans had encountered, Jiang Chen deeply understood just how terrifying they were!

"Those who aren't of my race must have a different heart!"

"I'll scout ahead first. If I can find an opportunity..."

The fog was still there, and the surroundings were shrouded in gray.

While the Murlocs guarding the camp were napping, there were a few figures hiding behind the trees. The longswords in their hands emitted a cold light, and a trace of killing intent was revealed in their eyes.

"Eye of Truth, investigate!"

"Name: Maka, race: the Murloc (merfolk) race, level: LV6, skills: iron arm pitchfork and water arrow."

"Description: this is a tribe of gray-scaled Murlocs. They specialize in underwater battles."

"With my current strength, I should be able to kill this monster if I launch a sneak attack when it's not paying attention."

Raising the iron sword in his hand, Jiang Chen weighed the dozing gray-scaled Murlocs and silently considered the difference in strength.

"What I need to explore now is just how many gray scale Murlocs are there in this camp."

"If there aren't many, then I can completely exterminate this tribe after I kill this Murloc first and eliminate any future trouble!"

Leaning against the tree, Jiang Chen stared intently at the dozing Murloc, Maka, not far away. His eyes shone with sharpness.

After Parker was injured and even cast a tracking spell, Jiang Chen understood one thing.

Pity was useless in this world, especially when it came to dealing with foreign tribes and enemies.

If he chose to retreat today and let go of the ambush on this Murloc camp, the Murloc tribe might not let him off when they discovered his territory one day in the future!

This was a true battle of life and death, there was no need to hesitate at all!

Under such circumstances, he'd rather kill by mistake than let go!

Bending his back, Jiang Chen turned his head to look at Parker and Zhang Fei, who were leaning against a large tree behind him, and raised his arm to make a hand gesture.

This was what they'd discussed beforehand, and meant that the two of them should carefully follow up.

Seeing Jiang Chen's hand gesture, Zhang Fei and Parker's spirits were immediately roused, and they slowly walked up with light steps.

Jiang Chen looked closely at the campsite that wasn't too far away and lit up with flames.

"Sir, there's only one Murloc guarding this campsite. In my opinion, there shouldn't be many monsters here. Why don't we..."

Parker spoke to Jiang Chen beside him in a low voice, his gaze overflowing with killing intent.

This campsite was located forty miles away from the territory. They would definitely meet again in the future.

At that time, the Murloc tribe might not be able to be merciful.

"Of course it's to kill!"

Jiang Chen's gaze was calm as he spoke in a low voice that was filled with killing intent.

"I've been sizing up this place for a long time. Other than this gray-scaled Murloc who's dozing off with a steel fork in his hand, the rest have disappeared."

"I think they're resting in the camp."

After slowly recounting the results of his observation for quite some time, Jiang Chen stared intently at the grey-scaled Murloc sitting on the ground and continued to make his judgment.

"If this grey-scaled Murloc tribe has a large number of people, it's absolutely impossible that there's only one merman guarding outside!"

"Its strength isn't strong. A sneak attack can kill it in one hit!"

Jiang Chen stood up as he spoke and gathered all the strength in his body.

"It shouldn't be too difficult to flatten this small gathering place."

Jiang Chen's gaze was fixed on the gray-scaled Murloc's camp not far away as he thought of this. He also raised the iron sword in his hand and prepared to attack.

"I'll take the lead first."

"I'll strike at its vitals and catch it off guard. I'll kill this Fishman directly, then you'll charge straight into the camp and exterminate all the remaining monsters. Finish the battle quickly and be careful!"

After he finished speaking, he took advantage of the dense fog to step forward and raise the iron sword in his hand to stare intently at the gray-scaled Murloc not far away!

Whoosh!

At this moment, his thin figure shot out like an arrow released from a bow in the blink of an eye.

By the time they recovered, Jiang Chen, who had been carefully bending his back, had already moved ten meters away.

"Die!"

Blood and Qi surged, and a red light appeared in Jiang Chen's eyes, which had erupted in an instant!

Jiang Chen's movements woke up the Murloc, who had been dozing off on the ground.

A trace of panic flashed through the Murloc's human-like eyes as it saw Jiang Chen, who was only a dozen steps away from it, sprinting over from afar.

It gripped the Pitchfork in its hand tightly and was about to hurriedly stand up to defend against the enemy when it saw a streak of sword light flash past!

It finally stood up when Jiang Chen was within three steps of the Murloc and wanted to raise the Pitchfork to defend.

Unfortunately, it was already too late.

The edge of the sword was raised, and strength far surpassing that of an ordinary person gathered in the sword in Jiang Chen's hand. Even though it had already reacted quickly to defend, its arm was still chopped off by Jiang Chen's sword!

PFFT! Fresh blood sprayed out!

Clang!

"Roar!"

The Pitchfork fell in response. The Murloc cried out in pain and took a few steps back. A trace of viciousness flashed through his eyes before it turned into fear.

Where had this powerful human come from?!

Noon was the time when the fog here was at its peak, and also when the Murlocs were resting. To think that they'd run into a human at this time.

Looking at the steel fork that had fallen to the bottom of the human's feet, its eyes were bloodshot as it roared at the wooden house, as though it was sending a message to its comrades.

Kacha!

A few of the grey-scale merfolk who were sleeping soundly in the camp heard the urgent call from their comrades and woke up.
